Synopsis
Internationally recognised as a twentieth century class, Lord of the Flies is one of the most celebrated and widely read works of modern fiction, by this Nobel Prize-winning author.A plane crashes on a desert island and the only survivors, a group of schoolboys, assemble on the beach and wait to be rescued. By day they inhabit a land of bright fantastic birds and dark blue seas, but at night their dreams are haunted by the image of a terrifying beast. As the boys' delicate sense of order fades, so their childish fears are transformed into something more primitive, and their behaviour starts to take on a murderous, savage significance.
